Antwerp vs KV Mechelen
Antwerp come into this one with a bit of a mixed run - they've lost two of their last five, but also picked up two solid wins and a wild draw where both teams scored plenty. KV Mechelen, on the other hand, are in better shape right now, having won their last two matches comfortably while also showing they can score in bunches. Recent meetings between these two have mostly been tight, though a few turned into high-scoring affairs, so it wouldn't be a shock to see goals here.
This one looks fairly close on paper, but Mechelen's recent form gives them a slight edge, especially since they've been winning while Antwerp have been a bit up and down. I'd lean toward KV Mechelen coming away with the win, though a draw is also a real possibility given how even these sides often look against each other.
